Cookie Pizza Date Night

One of my favorite treats to make and eat are cookie pizzas. I know that it's just a giant sugar cookie topped with fruit, but something about decorating that eating it just makes the treat that much better.

There are a bunch of ways to do this date. 1) You can go together to buy the materials and then make the pizza. 2) You can buy the materials ahead of time. 3) You can make the cookie from scratch. 4) Or you can make it from pre-made cookie dough.

Materials:

Cookie Dough (or materials to make it)

Fruits of choice (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi, banana, etc.)

12 inch pizza pan

1 package cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

1) Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 12-inch pizza pan with cooking spray. Break up cookie dough in pan; press dough evenly in bottom of pan to within 1/2 inch of edge. Bake 16 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 30 minutes.

2)In small bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Spread mixture over cooled crust.

3) Arrange fruit over cream cheese. Stir jelly until smooth; spoon or brush over fruit. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour. To serve, cut into wedges or squares. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pizza.

Get creative when decorating your pizza; that's the most fun part!

I hope you have an amazing day and an even better date.
